A solitary runner lets gravity take charge back to a fog-bound home while a single sheep looks on.

This shot is a real winner!

Cheers!

yeah great shot

Sorry Pontius, but ....... how do we know that the runner is 'letting gravity take charge'? Or even that his house is fog-bound? Do you know him, did you talk to him? And what about that sheep? Personally, I think it's looking at you, not the runner. What really happened here? Verifiable facts please. Oh what the hell - have a 5!

Well Karl, I was with a group that knew him, so he'd stopped to talk to us - that was his route home - this isn't staged - and his home was down in the foggy valley Hadfield/Padfield/Glossop way (Glossop is just beyond the wooded middle ground rising from the fog).
Although the sheep was very obliging by staying where it was - it had started off by watching the runner, and then, just before I took this, turned round and looked at us (as we were conspicuous on the skyline). I *may* break my ethical principles and copy the sheep pointing in the 'correct' direction from an earlier shot, but if I can get a '5' without faffing about like that..! ;-)

Thank you for clearing that up - I won't be winding myself up into an ethical rage now. Still ...... I do find it hard to believe that anyone would actually run towards Glossop (even with gravity assist)?

stunning shot. Is that really suburban Manchester?

Well, I wouldn't refer to it as the suburbs, but it is within working distance of one of the outer ones (and all the grimness is primly hidden by fog!)

awesome photo, even better with the banter
